about

Il Seminario Musicale is a baroque music ensemble founded in 1985 by the French countertenor Gerard Lesne, who is also its artistic director.

Past and current members of the ensemble include Marc Minkowski, Fabio Bondi, Blandine Rannou, Bruno Cocset, Patrick Cohen-Akénine, Florence Malgoire, Benjamin Perrot, Anne-Marie Lasla and Violaine Cochard.

The ensemble is supported by French Ministry of Culture and Communication, DRAC Ile-de-France, and the Conseil Général du Val d’Oise.
